Update and thanks for your help and comments

C92 the NT class 170s all seem to be described as 4 car sets but set as 2 car sets. all the NT sets are 3 car units.

similarly TPE 185s are all described as 4 car however they are 3 car sets

C DONE

JC92 chris - 4E68 should seed at S405 in order to change crew at Masbro SS jcn - it currently seeds at
masbro junction instead.#

C DONE

JC92 also none of the units seem to have dwell times for reversing. they ring out and move immediately when shunting
round the station overnight.

C DONE

JC92 5N01 has a, typo and its TD has a O rather than a 0.

C DONE

JC92 up trains at barrow hill north junction seem to have 241 selected as their line code
, causing them to be routed by the UDG rather than the up main.

C Looking for an example(s)

Hi, enjoying this timetable. I have a query about 5R04. this enters from holding sidings then proceeds
to U2B, which I assume is the same location as 2B va S80.
There the display changes to 2R04 (away @ 06:05). the train list shows it as 5R04 (away @ 05:50 to S142).
However 5S49 is due away from DSS at 04:33, so there appears to be a conflict here?
Save attached.

C DONE I believe

JC92 I've had two 6J03's enter, both are Immingham - tinsley workings.

C DONE

peterb See attached save - standoff in Sheffield P1.
5R00 fouls the points between the sidings and 101 (too long for 1A?) which is an issue as 1B61 is booked via
Dore. 2R00/2R02 can't go anywhere as both booked via Nunnery Jn.

C WIP


JC92 There's a lot of trains into 1A that foul the south end where they don't clear so far.
Standage realistically is 3 vehicles. 4 at a push but northern don't like that.
I think some of the ECS needs splitting into 2 workings.

C WIP

WDavy Having an issue at present with 5N05 & 2N00 which join in platform 5.

5N05 enters platform 5B ok but when 2N00 enters platform 5 there isn't enough room and the train extends
out of platform 5 over the pointwork. I'm then having issues being able to allow the resulting 2N05
to leave the station as it just says the points are set against the train. I've tried telling 5N05 to shunt
forward when it first arrives in the platform but it makes no difference.

C WIP

WDavy Something i've just found i have 7M19 come in from Doncaster and then shortly afterwards 7X19 also from
Doncaster. Upon checking the timetables they are both exactly the same and are both also the same consist
(Class 66 & 6 NRSC, What are NRSC?).

C DONE

WDavy 0Z89 Barrow Hill

C Solution found to test WIP

With the release of Loader v5.2 I am going to have to go through Sheffield again as some new features, moves etc have been added. Thanks for all the help testing using the old loader and I apologise for the delay.

Hi Chris, great timetable. I have one minor correction: 1Q50 isn't a NMT duty, for the depicted era it ought to be DRS class 37s top-and-tailing a four car PLPR (Plain Line Pattern Recognition) formation of Mk1/Mk2 vehicles.

What's a Plain Line Pattern Recognition formation?

A PLPR camera
Cameras mounted underneath the trains capture an image every 0.8mm, taking 70,000 images a second at the top speed of 125mph.

PLPR identifies potential defects and sends them to our expert inspection team in Derby. Local track section managers then receive information about confirmed defects, enabling engineers to target track maintenance more effectively

"Passengers for New Lane, should be seated in the rear coach of the train " - Opinions are my own and not those of my employer

More likely to be Colas 37 TnT or Colas 37 with DBSO

No, it's DRS. I'm an on train technican for Network Rail, PLPR trains are my day job. For a couple of years some shifts, including this have been subcontracted out by Colas and during the period of the sim it would be DRS 37s.
